what do you think about RWBY as an anime
493 posts and 230 image replies omitted.>>25432>Ren is absolutely no threat because Mr.Rooftop Korean is absolutely exclusive with Nora.As a main cast member, Nora would inevitably get swept up into the harem vortex.
>Qrow is so much older than them that it wouldn't work eitherHe would just throw off the dynamic as a man in his sexual prime. And at some point they would need to think about filling out the older woman archetype.
>And he's not bland at all, the best harem protags aren't bland, despite the memes.That only works for 'subversive' harems, that can market the character towards a specific demographic. RWBY needs one of the most average protagonists of all time for its audience to self-insert as.
>>25425I can totally see that. Just roll back her personality to the start of the series and she should be perfect reverse-harem protagonist, with the harem members constantly monologueing at her and saying how special she is.
Hatem protag Blake should have a spiked cat dick to hatefuck the racism out of Weiss with
>>25433>>25434 >reddit meme Do I need to teach you about how reddit steals memes? They literally took this from /rwbyg/
>C-cuckProjection is a hell of a drug.
>No-argumentThere's nothing to argue against - it's just screeching about a character you don't like because you have no taste.
>>25435>As a main cast member, Nora would inevitably get swept up into the harem vortex. That's why I gave the option of making Ren gay, it would fit.
>He would just throw off the dynamic as a man in his sexual prime. And at some point they would need to think about filling out the older woman archetype. Willow, Winter, Raven, take your pick.
>That only works for 'subversive' harems, that can market the character towards a specific demographic. RWBY needs one of the most average protagonists of all time for its audience to self-insert as. I disagree, at least in regards to the fandom I'm a part of. It's why I called out the other two for their r/RWBY / Critics tier opinion. Only the worst fans want a bland harem protag like you describe.
>roll back her personality to the start of the series and she should be perfect reverse-harem protagonist, with the harem members constantly monologueing at her and saying how special she is. NTA but you don't even have to roll her back, it works regardless.
>>25438futa is based and rwby is based so it's only natural
>>25436>spiked cat dickwhitegirl pls go
>>25443The Schnees must suffer.
>>18762>The pastebin: https://rwbyg.com/ Now that Roosterteeth is dead all RWBY & RT content including previously unreleased and Behind The Scene's stuff can now be found at
https://rtarchive.org/ at least for the time being. Dunno if VIZ's acquisition will change this or if they just leave it be, so if people want, they ought to save the content that you can, maybe make some catbox files. I might drop by the rwbyg servers and send the site owner the files if need be.
i want to kick off my semesters with a Yang
>>25539>RWBY might be put into Multiversus.…Should we tell them? 😐
>>26941So did anything happen to RWBY, or is it still in limbo with only minor, easily-monetizable spin-offs and licensing being greenlit.
>>26942Apparently remnants of RT have recently been acquired by another company and they're making vague promises
https://roosterteeth.com/press-release>Along with the acquisition, Box Canyon announced a new development slate of productions for 2025, including renewed production of some of the platform’s classic shows, a new original audio adventure Again, and an untitled reimagining of Burns’ first film The Schedule. Cool, let them reboot Rwby and hire competent writers this time
>>26943Wasn't RWBY already bought by VIZ Media?
>>27758Also it's a damn shame 8kun kucked itself with that retarded "join or die" image blocker. The rwby board there was pretty big and active.
>>11477Started off okay, turned to shit later because liberals. The RWBY references were fun though.
>>21076>Robot Gurl being hacked by Ernest KhalimovWas this a wordfilter? What the fuck does this mean?
>>28036I don't think it was filtered, it's about Penny and Ironwood.
>>28037Oh. Well technically it was hacked by Watts, who isn't a chad, despite his self-aggrandizement. That's why I was confused lol.
>>28128/rwby/ is always looking for new friends, and the /leftypol/ board is open for adoption I think. Anyone wanting to be leftypol BO… can be so.
>>281288kun is not really 8chan it just pretends to be. It is run by Q boomers.
>>28156Not quite. 8kun is directly built from the ORIGINAL 8chan, just as leftypol was originally based on bunkerchan's structure. It's what it became after the downfall. But yeah, 8kun is pretty shit, so shit that it basically ended up functionally killing most of its boards.
8chan.moe is a newer lynxchan based imageboard, it's similar to the original 8chan, but it's a different site. Even the CSS code is not entirely interchangeable.
Anyway more on topic -
https://8chan.moe/rwby/ is pretty ok. A little slow, but faster than this place, nor as toxic as 4/trash/'s rwbyg remnants, or as retarded as the main RWBY subreddits.
>>23449moot point. his website explicitly states that he is american.
being japanese in race and being japanese in culture are different things.
this show was made by someone born and raised in america. it has the exact same amount of japanese influence as halo 2.
>>28178>being japanese in race and being japanese in culture are different things <japanese is a race Ethnicity. Read a book. Oum was a massive otaku of Japanese descent. He's American by citizenship and where he lived, sure but by that metric cartoons like He-Man are anime since it was animated in Japan, even though the design, authors and conception is entirely Western.
>it has the exact same amount of japanese influence as halo 2 <retard is mixing up RvB and RWBY in his head RWBY is very heavily influenced by Monty's love of anime and its Japanese culture, from the story aspects playing fast and loose with Western history and mythology to the designs of characters being clearly anime, to the direct influence of Final Fantasy, Devil May Cry, Naruto, Hunter x Hunter, One Piece and more. The more Westernized aspects are something that came up later when he was long dead and gone and some of which explicitly went against his wishes (Bumblebee ship for example).
>>28187>>28178Forgot to add, RWBY also has a Japanese dub, an anime, several manga adaptations/spin-offs and a japanese LN.
>>28152Correction, currently /leftypol/ on 8chan is locked, so I think you'd need to go request Board Ownership from the Admins and see if they're mellow about it. www.8chan.moe/rwby/ is pretty active though, more active than here that's for sure. Also their /cyoa/ board is decent, better than 4chin.
>>28332The Japanese dub makes it watchable. Ruby's English VA must have given somebody the mother of all hurricane blowjobs to get the job.
>>28333>Ruby's English VA must have given somebody the mother of all hurricane blowjobs to get the job.she didn't apply for a job she was already part of rooster teeth. rwby was an amateur show made by a very informal "company" of youtubers whose previous experience was making machinimas and let's plays. half of the disproportionate hate this show gets is people losing track of this fact. it's like getting mad at community theater or someone's band they started with their friends
>>28363No excuse frankly. Rwby wasn't made on a toaster in someone's garage. It was just a bad decision because anyone could tell her VA sucks and any number of aspiring VAs on twitter could have done better.
>>28366>Rwby wasn't made on a toaster in someone's garageIt kinda was, at least for the original Volumes.
>her VA sucks She got worse later, her voice was fine in earlier Volumes, then the VA got older and trying to imitate the old voice came off as it does. That being said, V9 had a decent voice. Now continue here
>>27758 >>10805I just realized this was reposted from 8ch.net/rwby/ lol
Here's a headcanon of Team RWBY's politics, because why the fuck not at this point in the thread:
While none of them are really explicitly political:
Ruby: probably a Humanist philosophy-wise.
Weiss:Racism for that first bit, but eventually something like an Anti-authoritarian or at least an anti-plutocrat
Blake: Progressivism? Liberalism? Reformism? something not very revolutionary
Yang: Not sure
>>29237>Yang: Not surePolitical lesbian/transhumanism
>>29242Nah, Yang's a libertarian through and through.
>>29304Update: Link for stream is set, Sunday here we go!
>>29309Stream has begun!!!
>>29326The first stream was at 9AM-12PM it was replayed from 12-3PM again, that's what's being talked about.
>>29338>>29309>>29304Next Stream set for the same times with restreams at 9PM!
Hope to see you folks!
